I came home the other day to find a large, brown duck on my back porch. I spoke gently to her and she stayed for a minute or so before flying into the woods. I have tried to identify her in several bird books as well as the Michigan DNR web site, but can't find her breed. I wonder if she is migrating, or lost. My neighbor said this duck also watched her as she chopped wood a few days ago. I hope to see her again and will try my best to photograph her. She has yellow feet and a grey head with sharp, crested feathers.
Bless me, duck spirit!
